Chapter 43 Return to the Gama Empire
"So, Xiao Huohuo's fighting spirit has dissipated? I remember it should be next year. It seems that because of my existence, Xiao Yan's cultivation speed has increased a lot." After reading Xiao Zhan's letter, Xiao Yun murmured while sitting on the was not much in the envelope, just simple inquiries about Xiao Yan's well-being. Then Xiao Zhan explained Xiao Yan's situation and implicitly stated that he hoped Xiao Yun could return to the family and help Xiao Yan with his treatment.
This was of course no problem for Xiao Yun. Even if Xiao Zhan didn't ask him to do so, as long as there was a problem with Xiao Yan, he would go back to check. After all, Xiao Yan was his minimum guarantee for the future!
But now the question is, if Xiao Yan had not been bullied for three years, could he have become Dou Di at the age of 35 like in the original novel? Xiao Yun didn't dare to bet on this. He was very confident that he could break through to Dou Di, but the problem was that the task of breaking through to Dou Di was to be completed within a time limit! What if Xiao Yan didn't become Dou Di in the end after his interference, and he didn't have it either, then wouldn't Dou Qi Continent be doomed?
"Never mind. If I can find out who Yao Lao is, I'll make everything clear. If I can't, let Xiao Huohuo be the punching bag for three years." After thinking for a long time, Xiao Yun couldn't think of a solution. In the end, he could only lie on the sofa and give up on himself.
"What are you talking about, Xiao Yun?" A childish voice suddenly echoed in the hall. Then, the space in front of Xiao Yun twisted, and a little girl in white clothes with lavender hair stepped out and appeared in front of Xiao Yun.
"Taixu Ancient Dragon's talent in space is really high. He can perform short-distance space teleportation at just a Dou Wang level." Looking at Zi Yan walking out of the space, Xiao Yun sighed in his heart.
Most people who want to use the power of space need to cultivate to Dou Zong level, but Zi Yan, relying on her racial advantage, can teleport at will at Dou Wang level. With this trick, the so-called space barrier is useless to her. Over the years, Zi Yan has stolen countless top-grade medicinal materials.
Shaking his head to get rid of the thoughts, Xiao Yun sat up and said with a smile, "It's just a matter of one of my clansmen. He had a problem in his training and hoped that I could go back and help him."
"Ah? Are you leaving the inner courtyard? Then I will have to eat those unpalatable herbs again." Hearing Xiao Yun's words, Zi Yan was horrified and immediately threw herself on Xiao Yun, begging, "Xiao Yun, don't leave. You are the only one who plays with me in the inner courtyard. What should I do if you leave?"
boom!
When Zi Yan pounced, Xiao Yun and the sofa were thrown to the ground, making a loud noise.
"Ahem, get off me first. I'm almost crushed to death by you." Xiao Yun now only felt a little chest tightness and a feeling of difficulty breathing.
You have to know that Zi Yan's true form is the king of Warcraft, the Taixu ancient dragon, with extremely powerful physical strength, and she had not yet restrained her own strength when she pounced. If Xiao Yun had not practiced "Ten Thousand Thunders Body Refining", anyone else might have turned into a meat pie.
"If I get up, you won't leave?" Zi Yan asked innocently, lying on his chest.
"..."
Finally, Zi Yan got up, but was pushed up by Xiao Yun with his fighting spirit. He rearranged the sofa and said, "I won't be back for long this time. I will be back in half a year at most. I don't mean to abandon you."
"But half a year is a long time." Zi Yan pouted and said aggrievedly.
Seeing Zi Yan like this, Xiao Yun found it a little funny and said with a smile: "Half a year is just a blink of an eye for a monster, right? As for the pills, I will refine all the herbs for you later. You should save some and eat enough to sustain yourself until I come back."
"Hehe, we agreed on half a year! If you haven't come back after half a year, I will eat up all the herbs I left for you!"
During these three years, Xiao Yun helped Zi Yan refine many pills free of charge, but Zi Yan always said that she would follow the original agreement, so some of the medicinal materials on her body belonged to Xiao Yun. But looking at her now, if Xiao Yun does not come back in half a year, it is very likely that those medicinal materials will be gone.
Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly. Although Zi Yan said that she had his company in the past few years and was not as lonely as before, she was still a child after all and would have childish temper.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. If I don't come back, all those herbs will belong to you. But now, you should give me the herbs and I will help you refine them all."
After touching Zi Yan's head and collecting all the herbs she handed over, Xiao Yun turned around and walked into the secret room, preparing to refine all the herbs into pills for Zi Yan.
...Time passed by little by little, and the sky gradually darkened.
Pushing open the door of the secret room, Xiao Yun just walked out of the room, Zi Yan's figure flashed in front of him like a ghost, and her pair of big black eyes blinked at Xiao Yun.
"Here, remember to take your pills sparingly. These are enough for half a year. Don't finish them in just one or two months." Looking at her like this, Xiao Yun handed her the oversized jade box in his hand with a smile on his face. The pills in this jade box took Xiao Yun most of a day to refine all of Zi Yan's medicinal materials.
"I understand! I will save some food. Now I'm leaving. Remember to come back early." After receiving the delicious and energy-rich pill, Zi Yan immediately showed a lovely smile on her face and said crisply.
After saying that, she stopped pestering Xiao Yun. The space twisted and Zi Yan's figure disappeared.
After sending Zi Yan away, Xiao Yun took out a communication jade token from his storage ring. He poured a fighting spirit into the token, watched the jade token glow faintly, let out a breath, and sat on the sofa, waiting quietly.
A moment later, a figure walked into the hall. It was Fang Wen. In three years, he not only broke through to the Dou Ling realm, but was also appointed by Xiao Yun as the deputy leader of the Xiao Clan. Usually, all the affairs of the Xiao Clan were managed by him alone.
Xiao Yun briefly told Fang Wen that he was going to leave the inner courtyard, instructed him on some things, and left him some resources for cultivation. After arranging everything, Xiao Yun stood up, a pair of crimson wings emerged from his back, and flew straight towards the exit of the inner courtyard.
Xiao Yun took a griffin from the elder at the exit of the inner courtyard. He flew on the griffin for about half an hour before reaching the outer courtyard.
……
When he arrived at the outer courtyard, Xiao Yun did not go to visit his own teacher, but first found Vice Dean Hu Qian.
"Xiao Yun, do you have something to ask me?" In the study, Hu Qian sat on a chair, looked at Xiao Yun and smiled.
"It's like this. Something happened in my family, so I want to borrow a griffin from you, the Vice Dean, to take me back to my family."
Canaan College is far away from the Gama Empire. If Xiao Yun doesn't have a flying monster and has to fly alone, it would consume too much of his own fighting spirit.
"Oh? Is it just such a small matter? If your family encounters any trouble and you can't solve it, remember to tell us old guys. After all, you are also a member of our Canaan College." Hu Qian was surprised and didn't expect that Xiao Yun was looking for him for such a small matter. Then he worried that Xiao Yun might be too proud, so he said earnestly.
Seeing the worry on Hu Qian's face, Xiao Yun quickly explained: "No, no, it's just that one of my cousins had a problem with his cultivation, and I just happened to not be back to the family for several years, so I went back to help him."
"Well, that's good. You can go back directly then. Your teacher is still in seclusion trying to reach the Douhuang level. I believe he will have succeeded by the time you come back." Hu Qian said with a smile.
Elder Huo was able to retreat and strive for the Dou Huang realm thanks to the Earth Core Tempering Milk that Xiao Yun sent him some time ago. This gave Elder Huo the confidence to break through the Dou Huang realm that had been stuck for a long time.
Nodding, Xiao Yun took the token thrown by Hu Qian, bowed, and went to the Canaan Academy's flying station to receive the flying monster.
A strong wind swept across the sky, and a huge flying magical beast was soaring in the sky. Xiao Yun was standing on the head of the griffin. The oncoming strong wind made his robe whistle. He looked down at the Canaan City that was getting smaller and smaller on the ground, then slowly raised his head and looked towards the sky to the south, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Xiao Yun had been looking forward to this day for a long time. He wanted all of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, Little Medical Fairy, Qing Lin and many other precious talents in the Jia Ma Empire!
